Hi there, If you look in an encyclopedia you can find a list of 7 wonders, but these "top 10 lists" of the ancient world eventually got rewritten. Whether that was because the originals were gone, or too many new places were crying for attention, I (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)
